I like the Oathmark Skeletons a lot - North Star did well with going for a Celtic/Dark Ages aesthetic with them as something different. They'd make excellent Cauldron-Born from The Black Cauldron.

Though are yours going to be more for your new TOW Tomb King army? It seems you're going for every form of aesthetic except Egyptian with this force.

1. The first unit of skeletons has the tomb king esque shields.im using these for this because they and the wights remind me of bronze Age equipment.

And nehekhara is roughly bronze Age.

2. Indeed
 
Ah I see I am not the only one who hates painting bases. :P

You are not wrong. The skeletons will get there but they will. E similar to everything else in my collection. Aka very basic.

9 more skeleton spearmen and 2 Aztec shorn ones done. The new skeleton warriors are without Shields at present. I will be hopefully painting them today and they will be presentable.
 
Shields are not yet finished, but I did finish painting 10 skeleton archers, bringing me above 100 Miniatures painted or equivalents for the year so far.

I ended up not painting on teusday. I did build 5 cavalry though.

No pictures at the moment, but they were primarily made out of the elven cavalry from Oathmark.
 
Also, UHU glue + translucent paint = stringy effects like poison or blood.
 
I loved and hate this model equally. It is the quintessential example why interlocking joinery should be standard on detailed models of this size. A bone-giant/hierotitan for the Army of Ka-Sabar (Tomb kings - The Old World.) The model is from Lost kingdom miniatures. I picked up up awhile ago on etsy.

Also, there's Willis, the swordsman I painted while I was waiting for washes to dry on the big guy. He's a good infantryman-for-scale.

Crab rave but metal using rift forged bodies and harvester heads. Probably going to use these in a multi-role fashion with various chaos forces. They very much scream tzeentch to me.

The old metal wight king BSB for my soul blight, even though he wouldn't be usable as anything but a regular wight king.

Also five horsemen for my kingdoms of man army sitting on painting stand horses. Their actual mounts will be painted next week.

A few more steps to go on the chariot itself. However the crew and the first two skeleton cavalry are completed.

I went with a different style of dry brush for the bone color this time and I'm wondering if it worked out. Thoughts?
